Masters' Class January 2018
We will be doing Jeopardy in teams. Get together in teams of 3, you can choose who you want or be in the pool to be assigned. Study: dates, place and the documents of the Declaration of Independence, Articles of Confederation, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Know who were the main players of each, Why did they need that document and what does it say? The categories are Events, the Declaration ( 2 sets of 5 questions), The Articles of Confederation ( 2 sets of 5 questions), The Consitution ( 2 sets of 5 questions), The Bill of Rights ( 2 sets of 5 questions), Dates, the bonus round questions.
I will award extra points for memorizing the Preamble to the Constitution and the Declaration's 1st paragraph and a half (up to "the right of the people to abolish it") and the last paragraph.
Sample questions:
Who was the first President elected under the Articles of Confederation?,
Dates of the Articles of Confederation and the other documents,
What are some of the Amendments?
What did some of the Founders do? and
Acts of Parlement that caused Americans to rebel (Sugar, Stamp, Quartering, Intolerable and Townsend Acts)
Test your smarts. Show you are a patriot.
The more players the more fun we can have! Get a team together.
